Customer Reviews: Great little book on small engines December 5, 2007 magellan (Santa Clara, CA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I read this book thirty years ago and it was surprisingly readable, informative, and full of useful practical and technical details. The engines discussed are small, only a few horsepower or less, but they nevertheless have a lot in common with their much bigger counterparts. I actually used the book as a primer before reading books on the more complex automotive engines, and for that purpose it served very well. This was an excellent primer on the subject and it's still worth picking up a used copy now that it's been out of print for some years.
